Loving Arms Cancer Outreach

Loving Arms Cancer Outreach LACO assists cancer patients emotionally and financially throughout their cancer journey. Two Nurses - One Heartbeat...with total adoration for cancer patients.

Loving Arms Cancer Outreach was founded by Diana Hurst and Shamichael Traylor who have a combined 30+ years of experience in taking care of cancer patients. Discovering the needs and challenges cancer brings to the lives of people they love and care about makes them want to reach out to help. Cancer is a tough, life changing experience. Through every step, from diagnosis through treatment, Loving

Arms offers emotional and financial support. All of the services we offer are free: wigs, hats, prosthesis and bras, support group, groceries, meals, financial assistance.

So much to be thankful for. Last week we had a wonderful support group member sponsor lunch— thanks to Judy and Thrivent Financial! Lunch was provided by Paul’s Pot Pies and it was delicious! We have caring and expert sign language interpreters provide their services for one of our members thanks to Wellstar. Our volunteers continue to show up and provide love and nurturing to all who attend. North Metro Church generous provide a space for our meetings and their staff gives so much kindness in all they do. We have a sweet angel, Meg, who puts her love in the decorations and small gifts she makes for each support group meeting. This Sunday I just can’t help but feel thankful to be part of this amazing LACO family. Thank you to each and every one of you! —Janet 💜🙏🥰 Do you want to learn more about us, mark your calendars for the LACO Family Reunion on Thursday, September 17th.

I ran across this sweet message in a thank-you note I found again today while going through my desk. These notes remind me why we do this work and that even a simple gift card can make a meaningful difference in someone's life. 💜A grocery gift card may seem like a small thing, but to someone facing cancer, it can mean one less worry and knowing that someone cares. Thank you to everyone who makes moments like this possible. Thank you Anne for making my day brighter. 💜 --Janet

🎉 Happy Birthday to our incredible Founder, Shay! 💜

What began as a dream has grown into a lifeline for so many—and none of it would have been possible without the countless hours, sacrifices, and love Shay has poured into this organization. Loving Arms is truly her baby, and we are forever grateful for the impact she continues to make.

Join us in wishing Shay a very Happy Birthday! 🎂💜

If you'd like to celebrate her in a meaningful way, consider making a donation in her honor. Your gift will help continue the mission she has dedicated so much of her life to—providing financial assistance, resources, and hope to local cancer patients when they need it most.

Why are we asking for your support?

Because families with cancer can't afford to wait.

Right now, we have more than $6,000 in urgent financial assistance requests waiting to be funded. Just last week, more than 50 cancer patients submitted financial requests to Loving Arms for help with basic needs— help with utilities, groceries, and transportation.

Together, we can change that.

Will you help us clear our waitlist and make sure every family who asked for help this week receives it?

Since Loving Arms was founded in 2011, we’ve helped hundreds of cancer patients. As we continue to expand as a state-wide cancer outreach, Loving Arms needs to multiply our gifts to meet the needs of thousands more. Please join Loving Arms and help make a difference
